Answer:
If you want to spend no less than $40, and you want to spend twice as much on the first gift (gift x), you can spend $26 on gift x. On the second gift (gift y), you can spend $13. You will spend a total of $39 on both gifts which is less than $40 and have spend twice as much on the first gift as you did the second ($13 x 2= $26).
Answer:
The amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 5% was $1,000
The amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 3% was $1,800
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 5%
y ----> the amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 3%
we know that
---->
----> equation A


----> equation B
Solve the system by substitution
substitute equation A in equation B
Solve for x

<em>Find the value of y</em>


therefore
The amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 5% was $1,000 and the amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 3% was $1,800

Answer: Aproximately 2,525 balloons
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find the volume of a balloon with the formula given in the problem, where
is the radius (
), then:

2. Convert the volume from m³ to lliters by multiplying it by 1,000:

3. You know that that 1 liter of helium can lift 1 gram and that Ryan weighs 5 stone and 5 pounds. So you must make the following conversions:
1 g=0.0022 lb
From 5 stones to pounds

4. Then Ryan's weigh is:
5lb+70lb=75lb
5. Then, if 1 liter of helium can lift 0.0022 lb, to lift 75 lb (which is the weight of Ryan) they need:

6. Then, to calculate the aproximated number of balloons they need to make him float (which can call
), you must divide the liters of helium needed to lift the weight of Ryan by the volume of a balloon, then the result is:

≈2,525 balloons.
